Subject: Grand Forks, North Dakota, was devastated by an unprecedented flood, forcing the evacuation of an entire community of 50,000 residents in 72 hours. A qualitative descriptive study with use of phenomenological methods was conducted 6 months after the flooding. It aimed to gain a deeper understanding of the meaning of a traumatic flood experience and its influence on the health of residents of Grand Forks. Data were generated through interviews, observations, and media reports. Older adults appeared to be especially vulnerable and nurses may be better able to identify vulnerable populations and understand the health needs of other survivors
